Hi everyone,Last week, I was pulling rent comps to prepare renewal offers using my typical process: starting on Ręntometēr or Rēntcast for a rough idea of recently removed comps, then manually researching on platforms like Zillow, Apartments.com, and Facebook Marketplace.

Quote from @Chris Lo: Which platforms/websites do landlords use to find the rent rate, how long the rental properties have been on the market, and all the details about other rental properties?

Listing on multiple platforms does affect ranking by platforms but not as much as you think.  

What if something changes with how that platform works?

Isaiah, I would suggest starting out with doing some research on some of the available platforms like AirDNA.

Investment Info:

Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

Purchase price: $145,000

Cash invested: $15,000

I obtained the home 9 years and am holding it for cashflow as a single family long ...

I agree that the best way to make money is self manage your short term rental (not AirBNB, that is a platform).

Do you have a nice big building like a beautiful wooden barn or pavilion?

Hi, I just started using BiggerPockets and am excited to learn about the community and all the resources available. I'm particularly excited to find others in my area and start to attend some meetup groups!

I'd stay on platform.
